So they didn’t like the script.
I’m OK with this. The script needs to be good first. Then make the movie. That’s how it should be.
Just give Mahershala Ali a sword and start filming, let the story develop organically.
“Just start swinging. Whoever you kill is a vampire. Everyone else gets to be in the next scene.”
Because they keep hiring writers who have nothing to do with Blade.
The only person who’s written a good, modern Blade story—Marc Guggenheim—has had nothing to do with this project so far. IDK if he’s “too in” with DC to be a viable option, but it’s odd he has not been involved it when he’s the only obvious option… it’s not like modern Blade has a ton of great comic book arcs.
I say push it back to post X-men, and do the Jubilee vampire arc with Blade as a Jubilee movie featuring Blade or vice versa
Blade still holds up today. Not sure it really needs to be redone honestly.
Yeah they should put a leather outfit on LaKeith Stanfield, give him a sword, and then just film. You might not get Blade, but you’ll get something great
